Boston College sees QB Jeff Smith making progress despite results

It will be a clash of freshman QBs when Boston College and Louisville face off Saturday, and while Cardinals starter Lamar Jackson has been quick to make a name for himself in the ACC, Eagles coach Steve Addazio thinks Jeff Smith is making some progress, too — even if it’s not so easy to see.

Smith’s line in last week’s game — his first career start — against Clemson was ugly: 7-of-22 for 87 yards.
